Live Stream of the Safety discussions at ICAO’s 13th Air Navigation Conference

On this page you will find all of the discussions on the Safety Committee's items that include: organizational safety issues; operational safety risks; and emerging safety issues. Recordings will become available as the sessions occur.

Welcome to the ten-day, 13th Air Navigation Conference that is being held at ICAO Headquarters. Though we will be broadcasting the important discussions on YouTube Live, you can follow the broadcasts on this page by scrolling below to the event playlists. After the broadcasts, the videos will be made available for on-demand viewing right here.

The theme for the 2018 conference is “From Development to Implementation” which encompasses implementation of operational improvements, such as technology, operational concepts, and roadmaps, from the conceptual phase until deployment. It emphasizes the importance of concepts for global use, development of implementation plans regionally, and implementation of performance improvements locally, based on specific operational requirements in a cost-effective manner.

ICAO’s 13th Air Navigation Conference provides an opportunity for Member States and aviation stakeholders to work on global strategies for safety and air navigation planning, development and implementation. It brings together the views of the global aviation community on major objectives for safety and air navigation, and sets priorities for the coming years.

Throughout the conference, subject matter experts will participate in the detailed technical discussions that are expected to lead to agreements on high-level recommendations in different key performance areas of the air navigation system. These recommendations will be submitted for approval to the ICAO Council for subsequent endorsement by the 40th Session of the Assembly in 2019.

We will be updating the live discussions on all of the Agenda Items that cover safety issues on this page, as they occur. These sessions are spread out over the ten-days of the event, so make sure to mark your calendars with the schedule for the items that most matter to you!
